Reported victory over Rosecrans. capture of two hundred wagons--the enemy evacuating East Tennessee. [Special Dispatch to the Richmond Dispatch.] Bristol, Sept. 16. --A report, apparently well authenticated, reaches here that Bragg has whipped Rosecrans, killing and wounding 450, and that Pegram captured near Athens a train of 200 wagons, together with drivers, plunder, &c. This report is said to be taken from the Knoxville Bulletin, brought in our lines by a scout this mornRosecrans, killing and wounding 450, and that Pegram captured near Athens a train of 200 wagons, together with drivers, plunder, &c. This report is said to be taken from the Knoxville Bulletin, brought in our lines by a scout this morning. Burnside's forces are falling back, apparently evacuating this part of Tennessee. The enemy's pickets have advanced only five miles this side of Cumberland Gap. The Yankees say they are going to evacuate East Tennessee, but will come back in a few weeks and hold it permanently.

East Tennessee. --We understand that intelligence was received at the war office yesterday to the effect that Rosecrans and Burnside, after having chased our forces out of East Tennessee, had fallen back to secure their prize. It is the hardestheir conquest. It was achieved almost without shedding a drop of blood. Scarce a sprig of cypress is intertwined with Rosecrans's wreath of laurel. He had but to ask and he received; he had but to knock and it was opened. Everything gave way befst recorded in history. The march of Charles VIII. through the length of Italy was nothing to it. It seems, now, that Rosecrans never meant to follow Bragg farther than was necessary to get him out of the way. He means to hold East Tennessee, and and get him out who can. This is, we repeat it, the heaviest blow we have yet received; and it is the heavier that we had a powerful army in front of Rosecrans which was not allowed to draw a trigger in defence of this all important country.

The situation in Tennessee. --The Columbus Sun, of Friday last, says the grand drama is drawing to a close — the denouement will soon be revealed — expectation is on tiptoe. Chattanooga and the whole line along the Tennessee has been evacuated by our troops. The Sun adds: Our lines now extend from Cleveland to Dalton, and from thence to Kingston.--Rosecrans, with a boldness foreign to his character, and ignoring the usual policy of the Abolition Generals, has thrown a heavy column of infantry across the Tennessee at Bridgeport, and, turning the chain of mountains by Will's Valley, is marching in the direction of Rome. His force is reported by our scouting parties variously at from 48,000 to 80,000. Our army is on the move, also. The enemy's movement has been anticipated, and a full division of our troops are in advance of him in Will's Valley, hearing upon and checking his right wing, whilst them in body of our forces are concentrating in the direction of Dalton, K

iver in order to run off this stock and save it. In other words Grant was told to hurry on his raiding parties. He was slow to take the lint and a terrible calamity has been the result. Privateering might have been carried on for years from the waters of North Carolina had not our papers told the Yankees where our cruisers made their rendezvous. The capture of Hatteras, Roanoke Island, and Newbern, was the result of this babbling. A Chattanooga paper, a few days since, informed Rosecrans where Forrest was, and published the Dutchman's proclamation inviting our soldiers to desert. The Charleston papers tell Gillmore from day to day the effect of his fire, and warn him of the preparations Beauregard is making. The Yankees are duly apprised of every movement of our troops. They are told about all our plans, hopes and fears; they are taught where are our weak and strong points. Every secret combination of our military leaders against the vandals is proclaimed from
